Thanks for including The Changelog and JS Party! ๐ŸŽ‰

If you like those, thereโ€™s a non-zero chance youโ€™ll appreciate most of the stuff we publish. Thatโ€™s why we have a master feed. โœŠ๏ธ

Great list of shows, looks like I need to add a couple to qit

Also, I've got to throw Coding Blocks out there. It's my favorite...but I'm quite biased. ;)

I'm biased towards The .NET Core Podcast for much the same reasons, I think

I have a great podcast too, geared toward new self-taught developers (a demograph that is often overlooked in podcast topics). It's called La Vie en Code, and it's on Spotify/Apple Podcasts/Google Podcasts/Soundcloud/Stitcher. :)

Also, you can take a look at the episodes and notes here: lavieencode.net/podcast

As a dev podcast addict and maintainer of a dev podcast search engine, I appreciate it very much!

Subbed and ticketed!

I feel kinda bad jumping on this thread :-), but when you've got 70+ episodes of your own podcast, and it's not in the list, you can't be held responsible for your actions! I just posted our most recent episode of Mobycast here on DEV.to: dev.to/jonxtensen/growth-hacking-f...

Our formula is no guest interviews so that we can get deep on topics and have show-to-show consistency. We talk a lot about the realities of building and operating software in the cloud and cover stuff that doesn't get talked about in online classes.

Great list ๐Ÿ˜
For python developers, I would suggest Talk python to me which is a really good show focused on the python changes, ecosystem and the people behind it. What I love most about this show is it is well informative, calm and nicely organized.

I totally agree, I listen to it occasionally too, even if I am not doing any python at the moment. Quality guests makes that show for sure.

Full Stack Baby...

Don't forget Full Stack Radio by Adam Wathan, one of the best podcasts out there IMO โ€” solid contributor, vast breadth of topics and a good cohesive relationship among all episodes.

Is it too late to plug my own modest contribution? I host the devjourney podcast, where I highlight the diversity of journeys into tech. And we just passed the 100 episodes mark ๐Ÿฅณ

Command Line Heroes should also get an honorary mention for presenting the fundamentals of OS culture in such a fun way, tbh!

I am surprised PHP Roundtable is not mentioned here. A lot of other great coding podcast channels missing from the list. I would suggest to take a look at these channels as well:
Voice of the elePHPant
PHP Roundtable
Laravel News
PHP Architect
devMode.fm
Code Pen

Two more I really like:

  • Techzing, which often meanders into the personal lives of the Justin Vincent and Jason Robers and how they juggle contracting, side projects and raising their kids. They've also gotten some incredible guests on the show.
  • Fullstack Radio, in where Adam Wathan basically picks the brain of anyone and everyone whose software he loves. It's much more technically focused than most the podcasts on this list, somewhat like Changelog.

I've been listening to Developer Tea lately. It's not very technical, but it's more about the life of a developer professionally and personally.

Oh yeah that is a good one! Sometimes you just want to take a break from super technical topics and enjoy people having conversations and sharing thoughts.

Love this list! Darknet Diaries is probably my favorite out of the list but episodes aren't released as frequently as the others.

I love the Change Log and The React Podcast ๐Ÿ˜

We (at egghead.io) put out a podcast that I listen to regularly as well. I think you all would like it:
